Social media star exposes cheating husband

Cosplay star Heidi O’Ferrall has publicly outed her YouTuber husband, Jared Knabenbauer, for cheating on her for months on end with self-proclaimed ‘pigeon fancier’, Holly Conrad, in over 43 widely read tweets.

Knabenbauer, 33, is a well-known gaming YouTuber, who boasts more than a million subscribers who watch him review games and gadgets.

He and O’Ferrall had been married since 2014, and were a well-known couple in their industries, with many in their circles referring to them as ‘couple goals.’

However, the facade quickly unravelled on May 9, after Knabenbauer released ‘a statement’ on his Twitter account, referring to the divorce that he and O’Ferrall had filed for.

“My wife Heidi and I have filed for divorce,” the statement began.

“This may come as surprising and upsetting for many of you, but know that we do this so that we may both seek happiness for ourselves.

“I recently learned that my husband @ProJared has been f--king @HollyConrad behind my back for months. I have no idea what announcement he just made because he blocked me,” read the first tweet in O’Ferrall’s 43 tweet rant.

“I'm honestly shocked that he posted this today because it's so blatantly selfish. This isn't a mutual statement in any way.”

The jaded woman went on to explain that she had discovered her husband’s infidelities after finding a series of texts between the pair on his old phone, that detailed sexually explicit photos, and recounts of the times that had previously slept together, as well as him promising the other woman that he was breaking up with his wife.

“Reading the explicit messages between my husband and his mistress is an experience I would not wish on anyone,” shared O’Ferrall.

She told fans that her husband ‘gaslighted’ her for months, convincing her that she was suspicious for no reason and was essentially making it up in her head.

“He was unable to confess to his infidelity even when presented with proof,” she continues.

“He squirmed in denial until the last minute, getting angry and defensive instead of apologetic.”

The cosplay star explains that she offered him the opportunity to address his infidelity himself, before she spoke about it, but says he declined.

“I held on to this marriage for SO LONG because I believed in his goodness and he gave me just enough false hope to keep me hooked.

“I truly believed Jared was better than this, and he proved me wrong. I told him over and over that I had faith in his integrity, and he stood there and took the compliment and said nothing.

“While cheating on me.”

O’Ferrall finished her Twitter tirade by promising fans that she does not hate her ex nor does she encourage any sort of hating and trolling culture – she merely wanted to get her story out there. She also confirmed to many questioning fans that she will be keeping custody of the couple’s cat, Aries.

“I'm in therapy. I have been for a long time, in order to cope with and get through this situation.

“My therapist is a huge badass and she challenges me and calls me out as well as supporting me.
